Carnatic Vocal ❤️ Gana Nadhane ❤️ Om Sri Gananayaka ❤️ S.Sowmya

Carnatic Music is one of world's oldest and richest musical traditions. It primarily comprises a monophonic song based on improvised variations. The melody infused ragas called alapana are introduced and developed gradually. It begins with Varnam a warm up of sort for the musicians followed by exchange of ragas and thalas intermixed with kritis and pallavi. S. Sowmya is a Carnatic music singer. She learnt music initially from her father Dr. Srinivasan, and later from Dr. S. Ramanathan and Smt.T. Muktha. In 1998, Sowmya co-founded Carnatica - an institution dedicated to classical music & dance instruction, archival, talent search and other related activities. She also co-authored the first comprehensive reference CD-ROM on Carnatic music, Nadanubhava. She is also a visiting professor at the Advanced School of Carnatic Music of the Music Academy Madras.
